It,s not only on the sport, I have it on my 2009 1.8 petrol Titanium, it only effects the steering but it is difficult to detect any difference between the 3 settings.

"isopropyl alcohol" will remove sticky residue. Google it for a supplier.

AVG free version works fine on the Nexus 7. No virus in 10 months of use.

Talk to friends for recommendations, generally the local independent dealer is the best, they have a reputation to maintain.

I thought that my local plumber was having a laugh when he quoted me £70 per hour, but £100 an hour from the garage is really taking the wee wee. I think I chose the wrong profession.

I have a patch of bird dropping damage on the passenger door about the size of a 50p, I have tried everything to remove it, but as it's below the top coat all has failed, it was on the car when I, bought it and as the previous owner lived on the coast I bet it was a Gull, the garage was also unable to remove it, so a £300 discount for the paint damage, now waiting for a minor shunt on that door and an insurance respray, sods law that door will lead a protected life. Good luck with your attempt to remove the stain. I will follow this thread wit interest just in case some clever Trevor find the answer and brings back the shine.

There is a possibility that he was not insured, therefore he's keeping his head down. If you have his registration you can check on the net if that vehicle is insured. http://www.askmid.com/askmid.aspx

10% but no + 2 mph any more.

Mobile speed cameras are never positioned so that if a motorist were to brake suddenly upon seeing the camera it would cause a collision, therefore they are usually located on a striate piece of road with a constant speed limit. No excuses for exceeding the speed limit. :)

I had a 1999 Mondeo with the same problem, water in the electrics was the problem. I got shot of it at 12 years old as it was leaking like a sieve. Happy bunny now with a water tight Focus. :)

For those concerned with drifting over the speed limit, try setting your satnav to beep when you exceed 3 mph over the limit, it works wonders in keeping you to the limit, but don't rely on it all the time as the map speed limits are not always up to date, so use the eyes as well.

The extra insurance premium is levied every year for the next 5 to 10 years depending on the insurance company. Drive carefully.

The cost of a motoring conviction on top of the fine and points. The figures in the table below are based on a test quote we ran for a 30-year-old female marketing manager living in Cardiff and driving a 2003 Mini Cooper.With an annual mileage of 6,000, five years' no-claims discount, and the car parked on a driveway when not in use, she would pay £682 a year for cover.

That's poor MPG, hopefully it will get better when it's run in, my 1.8 petrol 125ps gets 37mpg average and 40mpg on a long run.

Yes there's not an ideal carrier. Write down the pros and cons of each type including the total cost, then take the plunge. good biking weather is just weeks away hopefully.
